Folders in JupyterLab Interface

When you launch the JupyterLab interface for the first time, a folder with your email address is created as your working directory. By default, the File Browser option is selected from the left menu.

You can perform the following actions from the File Browser view:

• Create a new folder: You can create folders only in your working directory and in the Common folder. Right-click on the left panel and select New Folder. The New Folder dialog appears. Enter a name for the new folder and click Create.

• Manage folders: Right-click on the required folder to open the context menu, and select the appropriate option from the menu. You can perform operations such as rename, cut, paste, copy path, and delete a folder.

  Note

  You can delete only empty folders.

• Manage folder permissions: You can set access control only for the folders in your working directory and the folders at the first level in the Common folder only if you have the required permissions for those folders.

  Note

  This feature is available in the latest version of Jupyter Notebooks. Contact Qubole Support to migrate to the latest version of Jupyter Notebooks.
